How about a BASIC that uses Labels instead of line numbers, and actual names for variables - some of the statements are different, for example instead of ‘Input’ labelbasic uses ‘ask’ (Each statment begins with a unique letter)

for string arrays – MAT $BOX(3,5) == 15 CHARACTERS OR 15 STRINGS ? I think it does the latter already. Note, I am nearly 70 years old - I got “help” coding this. (oh noe here comes a storm)
MAT [dollar]BOX(3,5) should give a two-dimensional array of strings, of course.
Good I think that is the case.
Actually, it was not the case, but it is the case now.
